Roberta Weir - United States
Art Brokerage: Roberta Weir American Artist: Roberta Weir's paintings, drawings and prints can be found in collections across the United States, and have been featured in numerous exhibitions in California. She is the author of Leonardo's Ink Bottle a popular book about art and perception, published by Ten Speed Press. Roberta founded the Weir Gallery in 1987 and introduced the work of many regional artists, including Jerry Garcia, with whom she created etchings and experimental prints. "I love drawing for its uncensored display of an artists knowledge and intuition" a pencil drawing of a woman in a striped cape by Watteau demonstrates an entire cosmology and philosophy, and for me at least, produces a feeling of recognition and a happiness that is unexplainable. On a recent trip to New York I visited Rembrandt's Polish Rider, a painting I am still in love with after many years. Why? This wonderful painting, fluidly brushed by a great master, inspires me with its manifestation of something splendid and noble. How all of this emerges from a sticky slide of oily pigment is a miracle and a teaching." - Roberta Weir
